TBN Members,this is my first post so please excuse mistakes.
I have a question about a 2008 5303 with a 512 JD loader.I bought this tractor new and I consider it to be a very good tractor that has done every thing I have needed,mostly pulling a 10' bush hog and moving round bales of hay.At full workimg temp with no load on the hydraulics at idle there is a rattle in the hydraulic pump.If I turn the steering wheel or move the loader just a little the rattle stops.All hydraulic functions wok as they should with plenty of power.I have talked to three dealers in the central Texas area and they say a little rattle is normal when there is no load on the pump.This pump rattle has not changed since the tractor was new and it now has 160 hours.I would appreciate the opinion of the pros that have given so much help to so many others.
Thank you all
